This sake brewery is located in the Ureshino Onsen town in Saga Prefecture. Ide Sake Brewery was founded in 1868. Sake brewing began with Ide Yoshitaro. The brewery was named "Toranoko" (Tiger's Child) with the hope that "Tigers have a deep affection for their children. We hope that people will show them affection and enjoy their sake for a long time, just like a tiger cub. And that the name will resonate far and wide, just like a tiger that runs a thousand miles." Due to the nature of the Ureshino region, all of the current brewers are tea farmers who grow Ureshino tea outside of the sake brewing season. They use traditional winter brewing methods. They value handmade brewing methods and approach sake brewing carefully.
